the dead-soldiers that have stacked their
arms and surrendered to the final conqueror.
One of the principal features Of Vicllsburg is
this vast cemetery. The rough and ragged
hills which form part Of the bank of the
Father of Waters have been fashioned into
place of profound beauty and impressive
ness Forty-seven acres are inclosed, i'll the
improvement of which the government has
expended more than $500,000. Ten men,
under charge of a superintendent private
soldier from Ohio-are constantly EN-
played in keeping the grounds in order. On
the most elevated point stands the monument,
or what is left of it, originally erected on the
spot where Grant and Pemherton arranged
for the surrender of the city after the long
and terrible siege. Relic hunters had so
defaced it by chipping off pieces that to save
it from utter destruction it was removed to
the cemetery and cannon substituted. Be
low us sweeps the majestic river, but since
the siege it avoids the town and strikes the
bluff a mile or so below the old landing. The
former bed of the river is now lake, and
where the great gunboats lay and belched
fire and destruction into the devoted city is
now a bank of sand covered with a growth of
coarse grasses and underbrush All around
the city are signs of combat.
Such war, such waste, such fiery tracks of dearth
Nature, however, is busy repairing the raw
ages of man. With the magic use of sun
shine and rain she is smoothing the earth
works and filing up the rifle pits.
In this Vicksburg city of silence, with
more inhabitants than in the living city,
there are l2,710 graves marked with head
stones which bear numbers only, the occu-
pants being unknown. The bones Of these
unidentified seepers were gathered from
battlefieds, near and remote, brought here

If the JOURNAL had typesetter
whose unclean work compelled us to
"dock" him at the rate of "fifty times
a month";" he would not stay in this
office long enough to get his hat.
And, as intimated elsewhere, were
we in charge of mine where there
was miner so needless of our mutual
reputation and interest as to earn
loss of "ten tons per month"; for dirty
work, he would be fired right INTO
grand jury headquarters bareheaded.

DR.. CRAIGEN, for instance, lets the
natural gas out of one of the last
grand jury's findings at the aims
house. Had a similar development
come out in way political to suit
the learned Col. Averitt, the Times
would have characterized the report ::
Fa1sus IN mo, .falsus in omnibus.
This is a maxim, however, which,
the JOURNAL hastens to confess,
though sometimes true. is not and
cannot be applied generally.
But it would be interesting to
learn whether DIR. Craigen and stew
ard Reid were summoned =? And if
they were, and lodged, would we en-
JOY sworn recommendation to wipe
out more offices and the almshouse ?
Would we be confronted with the
startling fact that we had drifted
several steps, instead of one, toward
anarchy, nihilism, nothingarianism
The fog which overhangs the sore
spot at the almshouse would be lifted
somewhat could we learn, too, who in
Cumberland is stricken with the
same interest in the welfare of poor
consumptive us is manifested by the
philanthropists OF Barton who bleed
invisibly for the asphyxiants of some
mines in that neighborhood, and
those whose SORROWS are doubled by
the waywardness of erring weighmen.
The "humane" few of the county,
through the last grand jury, got the
bulge on the heartless many, the first
and only instance of the kind on
record in this world, and the JorRN.
AL will wager one of its twin army
biscuits, % years old, that no Other
world can furnish "a parallel case.

WHAT has become of those ques-
tions? We desire to know, because
we want to add new and hitherto

Are you in favor of law making

Frostburg mining journal. [volume] (Frostburg, Md.) 1871-1913, 1887-10-29


THE JOURNAL with great sincerity
joins the grand jury in the "regret"
that they were unable to secure the
attendance before them of the Mine
Inspector.
For this there are a number of
cogent reasons, the first and last of
which are embodied IN the incontest-
able fact that no man in the State is
better qualified to detail the actual
condition of affairs in every mine in
this region, and us the truth only is
wanted on such occasions it is easier
for Il jury to weigh single consist
ent statement from competent Of
fetal than a legion of contradictions
by people threatened with all sorts
of economic fatalism.
And so far as the proper perform
ance of the Inspectors duties is
concerned thousand grand juries
can teach him nothing in that di-
rection.
The greatest pity of the whole af-
fair consists in the loss of a firstclass
opportunity to turn the guns of the
malcontents upon themselves, and in
their own ramparts compel them to
turn tail and fly.

and one will see hundreds in all stages
of erection.
Hence, the most devout believer in
Il great future for his town Is the Kan
sas city man. With thousand miles
of rich tributary territory in every
direction save one, he believes he en-
joys lien on the immediate hereafter
Of incalculable value, especially if he
owns corner lot. The cyclone has
no terrors for him, and he laughs de-
risively as he tells of the sorrows which
befell Kansas city when years ago the
grasshoppers came aud ate up every
thing in and around the place except
the mortgages.
Compared with this portion of the
country many people in Kansas city
have Il hard time pleasing their mas
ters. The most stringent rules exist.
Men and women are watched and
pushed. From 7 until II and from
until 6, in nearly all Establishments,
employees are prodded by inexorable
timekeepers. In fact. nowhere does
bosslsm reign more generally or
supremely, nor "dockage" fall with
heavier weight. In general, however,
wages are good and sure, which, with
the edible necessities somewhat lower
than here, makes the town a com
munlty of comfortable people. Dry
goods are higher than here, and rents
are eXorbitantly so. Transit by .horse
and cable railways is easy and cheap.
These lines are every year reaching
farther toward the country, affording
more and more accommodations to
those who cannot stand the high rents
in town. To those especially who
have been sufficiently provident to
purchase home, cable extension
particularly brings almost . fortune
in the value with which it invests ad-
jacent property.
So far as external evidences indicate
the "Frostburg colony" now quite
numerous, is doing handsomely.
There are no laggards among them,
and all seem welded to the activity
which surrounds and impels them.
OF the two hundred thousand people
in city and environs they are a small
fraction but no similar alquot of the
population is working more earnestly
toward making perpetual Kansas
city's glittering opportunity.
To all of these the JOURNAL Is in
debted in some way.

The JOURNAL is indebted to J. M
Gundlach, general western agent OF
the Adams & Westlake stove company
located at Kansas City, Mo-, for Il
complimentary ticket of admission to
the Exposition building. Mr.. G. is
associated with the Zahner & Battel
manufacturing company, of that city,
and of course has a considerable inter
est in the splendid exhibit jointly
made. Besides, he is one of those di
rectors Of the Exposition whose thought
and labor have made it grand success
for the first year and laid the founda,
ton for greater developments each
autumn to come. Connected with the
same house is Capt. William Kelly,
through whose membership of the
Rialto Club the JOURNAL obtained SC
fine a view of the city and crowd
during the progress of the presidential
party to the Custom House. Both
Gundlach and Kelly are princes among
good fellows, very harmonious except
IL slight disagreement as TO the manner
of whooping things up quietly. These
gentlemen are set apart by the JOUR
NAL for special mention, because they
furnished so much entertainment
where none was expected.

BY the application of gun cotton,
three immense and Lofty chimneys be-
longing to the Kunheim establishment,
Berlin, have been successfully destroyed
to enable important changes to be made
ia the factory. The largest of these was
about NJ feet high, and ten feet diane
ter at the base. In order that it should
fall outward from the city, the charge Of
gun cotton, about iifty-seven pounds,
was attached in portions to the side next
the city and to the adjacent sides, and
all three were exploded simultaneously
with magnetic electric apparatus. The
chimney, instead of falling obliquely,
collapsed vertically, and on inspection
the four walls of the pedestal were
found to have been driven outward: the
bricks were all detached from each
other, and nearly all entire, and the
debris was thrown very little dis
lance. The two other chimneys. treated
similarly, fell as was expected, that is,
obliquely away from the city, and one
of them, in falling, broke in two at
about the middle.
